Little Square

Reviewed By danielaI6579BU - Baltimore, United States

Charming area that’s paved with natural stones with a nice variety of restaurants and shops. A couple of the restaurants are busy year round (especially in summer) as they have ample outdoor seating.. Nicely decorated with plenty of lights during the holiday season. (Don’t miss the oversized lamp) About 10 minutes walk from Malmo C & easy to find & close to the Stortorget. Great for a drink or meal in the square.

St. Petri (St. Peter's Church)

Reviewed By Thefunkygibbons - Hartley Wintney, United Kingdom

The Church looks very nice from the outside. Inside, it is quite plain, despite its 700 year history, although the side altar at the back has some faded murals, which are more often seen in Italian churches. The main altar is very dramatic and it is possible to walk all the way behind it. Around the church in various paces is plenty of evidence of regular worship and an active role in its local and wider community.

Kungsparken

Reviewed By VancouverMar

We spent our last morning in Malmo walking along the canals and over the foot bridges in this beautiful park. The park cafe by the windmill is delightful. I had a delicious home made pannecotta with a Lillia Rosteriet coffee and my partner enjoyed a freshly made cinnamon bun with coffee. We sat out at a picnic table amid colourful flowers. A must see on a sunny day.

Pildammsparken

Reviewed By bluenosejock1 - Dunfermline, United Kingdom

We passed through this park as we took a long leisurely walk to Malmo Arena. The park has a moderate size lake with lots of fitness activities surrounding it. There were walkers, joggers and even an outdoor gym! Fantastic. The sun was shining and the warmth could be felt, it was just lovely and relaxing! Would highly recommended a little visit as its just 5 minutes walk from the busy shopping area.

Slottstradgarden

Reviewed By GillianS726 - Newport, United Kingdom

This park is a real gem appreciated by visitors and locals. Groups of kindergarten children were busy taking in nature, friendly dog walkers were eager to stop and chat., We walked around magnificent mature trees, formal herbaceous flower beds, along the canal and through a stunning avenue of lime trees and finally to an enormous windmill. A relaxing way to spend an afternoon and ponder on the statues
